Weimar on the Pacific: German Exile Culture in Los Angeles and the Crisis of Modernism (Weimar and Now: German Cultural Criticism) ReviewI was a student at Caltech in the late 60s and the influence of the European emigree community in LA in science, music, literature, and the arts was still very strongly palpable; indeed many of my best professors were themselves emigrees. Reading this book makes far clearer and more comprehensive than anything I have read before the broad outlines of who these people were and what they accomplished while in the US.
Later a student and businessman myself in Germany and Asia, I see even more clearly what an extraordinary European elite blessed LA with their presence. Not all of them are appealing (I personally don't care for Bertold Brecht or Adorno), but even their influence was no less visible, sometimes on well-known radicals like Angela Davis.Weimar on the Pacific: German Exile Culture in Los Angeles and the Crisis of Modernism (Weimar and Now: German Cultural Criticism) Overview
